 2x
 Oh, Susan,  you were clued  in you knew just  how this thing  would go
 A prognosis  that was hopeless  from the very  first domino
I guess  I  see it all  in hindsight
 I tried to keep perspective despite
 The flash of the fuse, the smell of cordite
Now  I'm in that place  again
 And I know  he can't come in to get  me
 And someday  he will live to regret  me
Susan,  I can see  it now
 Oh, Suzie--they  get to me  they can really  be wearying
 But he threw  me rope and buoy  let me use  his decoder ring
There must  have been  some kind  of parade
 We kissed for a while to see how it played
 And pulled the pin on another grenade
 2x
 Oh, Susan,  the hope  of fusion  is that  the halo  will reappear
 It may  be  pure illusion  but it's beautiful  while  it's here
 I had  some trouble with  the goodbye
 I checked my Roman candle supply
 and watched the vapor trail in the sky
But  I'm in that place  again
 And I know  he can't come in to get me
 And someday  he will live to regret  me
Susan,  I can see  it now
 Susan, I can see  it now
 Susan, I can see  it now
 (at the end theres a small bit from the Beatle's "Dear Prudence")

Oh, [A]Susan[Em], you were [A]clu[Em]ed in you knew [G]just how this [D]thing would [A]go[Em]   [A]     [Em]
A p[A]rogno[Em]sis that was [A]hopel[Em]ess from the [G]very first [D]domin[A]o
[A]I [Bm]guess I[G] see it [D]all in hindsight
I tried to keep perspective despite
The flash of the fuse, the smell of cordite

[A]Now I'm in that [F#m]place again
And I [D]know he can't come in to [A]get me
And some[C#]day he will live to re[F#m]gret me
[E]Susan, I can [D]see it now

[A] [Em] [A] [Em] [A] [Em] [G] [D]

Oh, Su[A]zie[Em]--they get [A]to [Em]me they can [G]really be [D]wearyi[A]ng[Em]   [A]     [Em]
But he t[A]hre[Em]w me rope and [A]bu[Em]oy let me [G]use his de[D]coder [A]ring
[A]There [Bm]must have [G]been some [D]kind of par[A]ade

It [A]may b[Em]e pure [A]illus[Em]ion but it's [G]beautiful w[D]hile it's [A]here
I [Bm]had some t[G]rouble [D]with the good[A]bye
I checked my Roman candle supply
and watched the vapor trail in the sky

[A]But I'm in that place[F#m] again
And I kn[D]ow he can't come in to get me     [A]
And som[C#]eday he will live to [F#m]regret me
